Item 3 Open Comments

Pursuant to the Board of Governors regulation 6C-8.012 Academic Program Termination, the University is required to develop and publish clearly defined guidelines and formal process to terminate a degree/major program.

Provost Mark Workman will address the Committee and present this policy.

Each year, the U.S. News and World Report puts out a ranking of colleges and universities. Reputations of universities are frequently reported based on these rankings. Often, students selecting schools that best fit their needs will also turn to these rankings. The University felt it was important that members of the Educational Policy Committee be updated on UNF’s performance in specific elements of this ranking system.
